Well my engine coolant has been leaking just didn’t know from where it was and how bad. Well its real bad now. Its leaking from the upper hose that comes from the radiator not from the house tho from the peace it goes into I think its either the thermostat or the water pump. I have pictures of what it looks like if u need to see them dont know how to put pics in a thread but really need to fix this ASAP. Any help would be great on what that peice is and what they go for and if its a fix it your self kinda thing.

click post reply, then scroll down and you will see attach files and a manage attachments buttom, click on that, then browse and click on the pic and that should post a pick with your post.
If it's leaking from the thermostat, your rubber gasket peice might be bad. did you change out the thermostat? your water pump has a weep hole, usually it leaks from the little hole on the water pump when the bearings are bad.

that peice the one wit out the hose is leaking not from the hose tho from that peice it self. i took it off and checked the gasket and it seems to be fine but going to replace it anyway to see if it makes any sort of diff. still dont no what that peice is and is it a do it your self fix same as i said before.

I believer that is where your thermostat is....Don't know the name of the piece though. It doesn't cost much to replace.

Try replacing the coolant neck gasket and that is where the thermostat is located. also make sure to TQ down the 2 bolts to specs.

I've got a spare coolant neck if you need. 10 + 5 to ship.

what do u mean tq them down to specs and whats is the coolant neck and is it that peice that the hose is at cus that is where the leak is coming from. those to bolts i took out and took that metal peice off was no cracks or anything any where i could see.

lizardbreath 07-07-2006 11:36 AM

the coolant neck is the thing that the hose is attached to. It probably just has a leaky gasket.
